1. Officer gains reflect an addition to the commissioned officer ranks between 1 October 2016 and 30 September 2017. This addition can reflect a new accession, a movement from another component, or the return of the officer to the same component.  The OSD definition of a gain is a transaction in a database that reflects the addition of an SSN that was not in the previous file.
2. American Indian, Alaska Native
3. Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander
4. The US Army Reserve (USAR) does not report data on the number of officer gains in the "Two or more" category. Caution should be used in comparing the racial composition of the USAR's officer gains with those of the other Selected Reserve components.
5. Comparison group for gains includes 21-39 year-old college gradutes in the noninstitutional civilian population, October 2016-September 2017 average.
